1. What is a Percentage Calculator (Subject Wise)?

Definition: This calculator computes the percentage score for a subject based on marks obtained and maximum possible marks.

Purpose: It helps students and educators quickly determine performance percentages for individual subjects.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• Subject Marks — Marks obtained in the subject (unitless)
• Max Marks — Maximum possible marks for the subject (unitless)

Explanation: The formula calculates what portion of the total marks was achieved, expressed as a percentage.

3. Importance of Percentage Calculation

Details: Percentage scores provide a standardized way to compare performance across different subjects with varying maximum marks.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the marks obtained and maximum marks (default 100). Marks obtained cannot exceed maximum marks.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can I use this for any subject?
A: Yes, this works for any subject as long as you know the marks obtained and maximum possible marks.

Q2: What if my subject has a different maximum marks?
A: Simply enter your actual maximum marks (e.g., 75, 150, etc.) instead of the default 100.

Q3: How accurate is the calculation?
A: The calculation is mathematically precise based on the inputs provided.

Q4: Can I calculate percentage for multiple subjects?
A: This calculator is for single subjects. For multiple subjects, you would need to calculate each separately or use an aggregate calculator.

Q5: What if I get more marks than maximum?
A: The calculator will not compute if marks exceed maximum, as this is not possible in standard grading systems.
